Key result
Postoperative renal failure requiring dialysis developed in 4% of patients undergoing open heart surgery and was associated with high mortality (47.6% at 28 days and 71% at 3 months).
Why the study?
Cardiac surgery involves complex pathophysiologic conditions followed by important complications, among which renal failure is the most important and increases morbidity and mortality.
Observational (n=2,600)

Dialysis-requiring renal failure after open heart surgery identifies high-risk patients; hypothesis-generating for prevention trials without changing practice.
Objective: Cardiac surgery involves complex pathophysiologic conditions, which are followed by many important complications. Renal failure is the most important complication, responsible for increased morbidity and mortality. Method: The files of the patients who underwent 2600 open heart surgeries in our hospital between 2016-2018 were retrospectively reviewed.

Çavuş et al. (2019) conducted an observational in Postoperative renal failure requiring dialysis after open heart surgery (n=2,600). Open heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass was evaluated on Incidence of postoperative renal failure requiring dialysis. Postoperative renal failure requiring dialysis developed in 4% of patients undergoing open heart surgery and was associated with high mortality (47.6% at 28 days and 71% at 3 months).
